"Not only are these big banks not sitting around and waiting for the phone to ring, they are also being proactive." Amid the nation's most troubling turmoil in banking since the global financial crisis nearly 15 years ago, the big banks are flexing their collective muscle. The 2008 financial crisis humbled the banking behemoths; the 2023 crisis of regional banks has now only cemented their power.

Holding a state funeral "was a big miscalculation" for Kishida, said Tomoaki Iwai, an expert on Japanese politics and professor emeritus at Nihon University. The opposition to the funeral reflects how divisive Abe remains in Japanese society. A private funeral for Abe was held on July 12, four days after his killing. About 50 heads of state or government are expected, and media reports say Kishida may meet with around 30 of these.
